I have been informed by Michael Barron that he will be nominating Olga Mushtaler for the CFC Vice-President position. Olga is involved in Chess in the Park initiative which sees chess events organized in Toronto area parks.



Hello everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself before the meeting. My name is Olga and I have been actively involved in promoting chess in the Greater Toronto Area. I started and run the group called Chess in the Park (Toronto). It’s been very successful, with a rapid membership increase and titled players engagement, such as Chessbrahs. The group members enjoy playing blitz tournaments in different parks and chess tables around the city (and indoors in the winter). I would like to do more in popularizing chess in the Greater Toronto Area and throughout Canada, hence, submitting my application for Vice President position with the Chess Federation of Canada.

Please check out the video made by GM Aman Hambleton to get the feel of Chess in the Park:
